Britney/Brittany (2010)

Jayma Mays: Emma Pillsbury

Quotes 

• Emma Pillsbury : Did you ever notice that Britney Spears only makes great music when she's not chasing down paparazzi? She can't just swallow a grenade and let her talent explode all over the walls. She's gotta reign it in. Just like you do. You're such a great teacher, Will. Now, probably the best in the whole school. So why would you wanna be someone else when that someone you already are is so amazing?

  Will Schuester : Because the boring someone that I already am wasn't good enough for you.

• Emma Pillsbury : I know that Britney's had some issues in the past, but I actually think it's quite admirable the way she's gotten her life back together. I mean, hasn't she had what, like, three number one hits in the past two years? She's a single mom raising two kids. I think she's the perfect symbol for the possibility of rebirth.

  Will Schuester : I can't...

  Emma Pillsbury : See, that's your problem, Will. You're too uptight.

  Will Schuester : Oh, you're calling me uptight?

  Emma Pillsbury : Mm-hmm.

  Will Schuester : The woman who buys hand sanitizer by the barrel?

• Dr. Carl Howell : Hey, now. Am I interrupting?

  Emma Pillsbury : Carl, no. Hi. What are you doing here?

  Dr. Carl Howell : I thought I'd surprise you and take you to lunch.

  [seeing her expression] 

  Dr. Carl Howell : Oh, I love that look of instant panic every time I try to change your routine. Adorable.

• Dr. Carl Howell : Will, you grind your teeth?

  Will Schuester : I... I don't think so.

  Dr. Carl Howell : [his phone buzzes]  Damn it.

  Emma Pillsbury : What? What's wrong?

  Dr. Carl Howell : Another teenager needs a root canal. I swear, not one student in this school is going to have their teeth by the time they're 30.

• Dr. Carl Howell : All right, so here's the deal. You chew this little capsule. Now, if there's any plaque you missed, the dye will stick to it and turn your teeth blue.

  Santana Lopez : Can I just say that you are the hottest dentist I've ever seen?

  Dr. Carl Howell : I get that all the time.

  Santana Lopez : No, like, seriously. You can totally drill me whenever...

  Emma Pillsbury : [interrupting]  Santana. Okay, let's stay focused.
